L-Glutamic Acid is a non-essential amino acid for human development; referred to as an excitatory amino acid (EAA) due to its role in neurotransmission. Acts as a neurotransmitter at fast synapses; agonist at kainate, NMDA and quisqualate receptors. L-Glutamic acid is one of the two amino acids that contains a carboxylic acid group in its side chains.


L-Glutamic acid is used in cell culture as a component of MEM non-essential amino acids solution.
Agonist at kainate, NMDA, and quisqualate receptors; an excitatory amino acid neurotransmitter.
